Who You Are

You're a working A&R, urban music producer and DJ with a proven track record in hip-hop, drill, afrobeats, dancehall, amapiano, R&B or adjacent urban sounds. You've spent years in studios, on airwaves, in clubs and on festival stages — and you can hear a hit three bars in.

You know the culture from Toronto to Lagos, New York to London, Kingston to Paris. You've built relationships with artists, producers, DJs, radio and brands. You lead with taste, work with speed, and ship.

Scout, sign and develop unsigned urban talent across regions. Build the A&R pipeline.
Produce and executive-produce platform-exclusive drops, cyphers, live sessions and battle events.
DJ and curate flagship SwaggaLIVE broadcasts, live streams and IRL activations.
Partner with radio, clubs, festivals, brands and media to amplify our artists globally.
Shape SoundClash, Country vs Country and Championship formats with the product team.

What You Bring

10+ years in urban music — A&R, production, DJing, radio or label experience.
Discography, mixes, playlists or a roster you can point to.
Deep network across artists, managers, producers, radio and press.
Editorial voice — you can write, speak and present with authority.
Comfort with data — streams, charts, engagement — as a creative signal.
Bonus: award nominations, festival main-stage sets, live-to-air radio residencies, brand campaigns.

The Package

Competitive salary + equity in a fast-growing global platform.
Creative autonomy — you shape the sound.
Travel budget for scouting, sessions and events.
Studio, gear and production stipend.
Remote-friendly with a Toronto home base and travel to hubs in Lagos, London and New York.

The Move

You gots to be plugged in and connected. SwaggaLIVE Ambassadors are the eyes, ears and voice of the culture in every city. You unlock doors to exclusive music events, private listening sessions, release parties, showcases and backstage moments before the world knows they exist.

We're looking for DJs, producers, A&Rs, influencers and artists who already move the crowd — online and in real life. If your name rings bells in your scene and your phone stays buzzing with the next wave, this is you.

What You'll Do

Represent SwaggaLIVE at exclusive events, showcases, and artist activations in your city.
DJ, host, produce or co-sign the hottest unsigned talent before they blow.
Connect artists, producers, and creators to the SwaggaLIVE ecosystem.
Create content, stories, and noise around SwaggaLIVE drops, battles, and live moments.
Feed insider intel on what's bubbling in your region — songs, artists, scenes, and movements.
Help build the SwaggaLIVE CreatorOS as the operating system for the culture.

You Might Be If

You're a DJ, producer, A&R, influencer or artist with real reach and real relationships.
You're already at the events, in the studios, and in the group chats where culture is made.
You can spot talent early and you're not afraid to put your name behind it.
You create content that moves — mixes, freestyles, reviews, reels, live streams.
You believe unsigned artists deserve the same shine as the mainstream.

What's In It For You

Access to exclusive SwaggaLIVE music events, showcases, and private experiences.
Early access to new platform features, artist drops, and CreatorOS tools.
Feature opportunities across SwaggaLIVE channels — homepage, social, newsletters, live streams.
Direct pipeline to collaborate with SwaggaLIVE artists, producers, and brand partners.
Performance-based perks, affiliate rewards, and ambassador recognition.
